I love every bit of myself
down to the last crazy curl and tasty little flaw

But sometimes I get tired
I can't fight the poison I've been spoon-fed anymore
And I start to hate myself

Like when I spend a day watching shows I don't care about
I was overwhelmed, I couldn't figure out what to do first!
When it's 11pm and I still have everything left
The stress tears kick in and I'm kicking myself
I'm so weak, it's all my own fault
And I hate myself

When I take two cookies instead of one,
And it makes my teeth hurt and head ache
When no one's home and I rampage through the kitchen,
This is bad for you, you're killing yourself
But I just want more, more sugar, more
I'm so weak, why can't I control it?
And I hate myself

When I complain about my problems, though they are nothing
nothing
compared to how lucky I am
When I get a bad grade, and even though I know it doesn't define me
I let it
and I hate myself.

But there is one thing I hate myself for more than anything else

*I hate myself most when I wish I could be anyone or anywhere else.
